Milwaukee Bucks Grades: Bench

0 Points | 0-2 FG | 0-0 FT | 0 REB | 0 AST | 0 STL | 0 BLK |

To say that he didn’t do anything in the 9:43 he played wouldn’t technically be correct–he did miss both of his shots after all. He has that keen talent to either be taking threes at will or completely disappearing from the game. Saturday night he pulled the latter.


Johnny O’Bryant

0 Points | 0-4 FG | 0-0 FT | 0 REB | 0 AST | 1 STL | 0 BLK |

Speaking of not doing anything we now arrive at JOB who played 15:15 and failed to record a stat minus four missed shots and a steal (it was a magnificent steal, for what it’s worth). He still loves his jumper, which is odd, considering I haven’t seen one fall in months.


Miles Plumlee

6 Points | 3-4 FG | 0-0 FT | 4 REB | 1 AST | 1 STL | 2 BLK |

He’s really made John Henson‘s absence bearable and has shown that he can be a solid contributor. He has a remarkably high PER (18.26) and fits in perfectly with the up-tempo offense that the Bucks want to run. His development could make the Bucks more comfortable parting ways with Moose–should that be their plan.

Tyler Ennis

, A-

10 Points | 4-6 FG | 1-1 FT | 2 REB | 1 AST | 0 STL | 0 BLK |

Tyler Ennis, yes Tyler Ennis, took a heat check three pointer. He missed, but that’s indicative of the sort of night he was having. He came in to start the second quarter and made an immediate impact scoring eight points in rapid succession and propelling the Bucks to the precipice of a blowout (which they retreated from, of course).
